Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: A person bought a car through a lease-to-own contract, and then he wanted to make an agreement between us that I would buy it from him, whereby I would pay the installments on his behalf. Is that permissible?
Answer:
This is an invalid sale from the outset, because the lease-to-own contract is an invalid contract. A decision was issued by the Council of Senior Scholars declaring it invalid. Therefore, everything that results from it is not valid. Yes.
